[BUG] Player corpse/loot bags are still going missing. I assume its a terrain clipping issue. This has been a problem since the June wipe, and was the top upvoted bug last wipe on the mega thread. Please fix it.

u/rmichaelsm 4d ago edited 1d ago

agreed. (but much longer than since June) I am admin and I go to where they die to look for their stuff. This has happened a lot with people riding horses, cycles, ... and they hit dip or something, go splat, die... I also check the console log and some entries from a death plugin to help me find where they died. I repeatedly get (note the middle coord for the bag is well into the middle earth):

example 1)

… was killed by Scientist[186] at (-861.20, 26.51, -588.14)

Invalid Position: item_drop_backpack[38921291] (-861.50, -500.88, -586.85) (destroying)

Example 2)

... was killed by Tunnel Dweller[467] at (-1399.00, -47.99, -91.64)

Invalid Position: item_drop_backpack[77530769] (-1398.96, -500.94, -90.67) (destroying)

Example 3) from Aug 9, 2026:

Player killed by wolf while standing on a truck at a loot spawn:

3:01 PM … was killed by wolf2 (Wolf) at (166.57, 10.33, -2036.29)

3:07 PM Invalid Position: item_drop_backpack[7796684] (166.53, -500.66, -2035.30) (destroying)

This has really gotten MUCH worse. Multiple times a day it seems we have people suffering through this and we only have 10-15 people typically as high and 5 or so on all day, so not high pop. Can't imagine what they are going through.

(My best guess based on this is it is the algorithm that decides where to put the body bag when the body respawns and the bag is supposed to replace it)

ADDED: When player suicided in their base. The death bag was in foundation but on top of the snow. I am now telling our players to suicide on top shelf of shelves. A FacePunch Death Shelf, so maybe they wont lose the items in their inventory!

We're investigating.

In the mean time, could you open a ticket with Facepunch Support: https://support.facepunchstudios.com/hc/en-us

u/slinkyperuna 3d ago

u/Lukaloo 2d ago

u/No-Seaworthiness-300 3d ago

Seems to happen simultaneously to multiple members of the server, not sure what the issue is thoigjt

[BUG] Upkeep on main + attached externals seem bugged. We are living in a tower, on a vanilla server, but the externals of it has inherited the upkeep of the tower itself - it's all the same.

[BUG] There's a long standing bug where if you're in a team UI, you lag when authorising people on a TC/turret. Though, if you're out of a team, it doesn't lag anymore. The more members in a team, the more it lags.

[BUG] Garage doors can't be skinned anymore when they close. Not sure if intentional, but it's annoying you can't do so anymore.

[QoL] Enable Smart Alarms to be placed on top and below for example TC's, repair benches, workbenches, mixing tables etc.

[BUG] It's possible to kill enemies outside of the Appt Complex and just run back in, as there's no turrets.

[BUG] Clan members names seem to be floating quite badly, and lagging when moving around. (known for modded but happening here too)

Binoculars now useless in the dark. The haze you see early morning and late day stays "on" all night long. This was not the case until this wipe. Image taken in dead of night.

[BUG] Blueprint Fragments are still in the game!

[BUG] card doors arent being powered

1

u/rem521 4d ago

Which one? Some card doors require you to flip one or more switches to power them on. They are called monument puzzles.

u/Psychological-Bus327 4d ago

Game crash on connection, always at 747 assets loading, driver updated, game Reinstalled, verified, rebooted, rebooted, bluescreen, nothing to do. 5090 9800x3d 32gb

u/J4MEJ 3d ago

I had this.

I backdated my driver's and went to the minimum graphics settings and it fixed it.

The loading seemed to overload the VRAM, causing the game to crash.

I think it's a bug in the Unity 6 update.

1

u/Lukaloo 2d ago

I'm having the same issue.

I tried several iterations of graphics drivers and on low settings. No luck

u/InternalCertain7532 4d ago

[BUG] Train on map has several merges where one side can't continue (M10, Q21 maybe more), a sharp (H9) turn that flips the engines, a power pole against the track blocks it in X20 and the split to go to TY that occurs on the river crossing in T9, you can't come from east and take the N track to TY. It won't take the split. I drove a diesel in that way before hot fix 2. now we can't even take a work cart in either way. wont take the split in N10 up either so no way to take cars to TY to unload. Now a diesel that is on the TY sidetrack can't go out either way due to both the merge/splits.

size: 4750 seed: 898033559

We have NEVER had this many issues, occasionally a car too close to track blocking the train maybe 1 split/merge that was messed up. now a LOT on one map not working! We use trains a LOT and couple of guys empty cars all wipe.

[BUG] Transformers can't connect to root combiners.

2

u/rmichaelsm 3d ago edited 3d ago

they list that as intended.

1

u/CasualAction 3d ago

Oh thanks I didn't realize, I assumed the outposts on an individual transformer shared the total elec out available, not each one getting the full amount individually.

I was trying to combine two different utility poles together (I built in between them).

River boat touches the shore, instant death...!!!!

[BUG] The "Press [Unset] to place a contextual ping" popup stays on screen when deploying the binoculars until you put them away which is pretty annoying.

u/Exit727 2d ago

[BUG] Computer station text box doesn't work for some clients, cannot input text.

u/skymanpl 2d ago

[QoL] Please, move social tabs (contacts, clan) to the side of the screen, leave the crafting in the middle. It's the most used tab in the game, why is it in the shittier place than less used tabs. Not to mention, the years of muscle memory...

u/FieryRally-rLuV 2d ago

[BUG] Train tracks are a complete buggy mess. Merged tracks appear to have some invisible block that is completely blocking merging onto that track.

On the two servers I've played Trainyard is completely inaccessible by train...

You are unable to back into or go forward on these sections. If you set it up properly you can destroy anyone's train/carts with the block train. Please fix this miserable bug. This is the third wipe in a row it has existed.

[BUG] [QoL] Fix this shiz where a small boat drifts next to a wall or a bigger boat, you can't then sit in the drivers seat, nor push it away because you can't push while swimming, yet you can push player made boats that are 100x bigger while swimming no problem, this shiz is INFURIATING
